Pam's Mediterranean Chocolate Truffle Recipe
Naughty But Very Nice!


Great Chocolate Truffle Recipe Photo with Cointreau


Irresistible Chocolate Cointreau Truffles


Pam likes to keep this Chocolate Truffle Recipe for a special occasion - Birthdays, Anniversaries - Christmas...You can experiment with some of the elements - for example: change the spirit you use - Rum and Brandy are good alternatives and Pam will sometimes roll the Truffles in Cocoa Powder or Icing Sugar. Whichever way you dress them up they are always - Delicious, and SO much better than Bought ones.

OK Let's Become Chocolatiers!
